Dominique’s questions and my responses.

1. On which side of the bed do you sleep?

Usually on the left, on my side, facing outwards but am happy either side. in winter I am usually curled into a ball with just a tuft of hair visible. I think it deeply unfair that humans are not allowed to hibernate.

2. When did you discover you had a special talent?

If I have one then it is probably drawing, in which case about ten years ago. If you count my sense of humour then it was when a teacher at school told me I had a ‘divergent mind’ and I realised I regarded that as a compliment.

7. When was the last time that you got scared?

8. Do you like to do pranks? If yes, share one of your pranks. If not tell us why.

I have a great idea for one at the moment but am trying to find the courage 😉

9. How old where you the first time you…? (Anything goes)

20

10. How was the ‘thing’ you did for the first time?

Addictive

11. Where will you go or wish you could go on your next trip and why?

My next trip, in just a month from now, is my first trip across the Atlantic to Montreal where I will meet some of my blogging friends for the first time – including the wonderful lady who nominated me for this award 🙂

My nominees:

Anyone that wants to answer the following – please feel free!

My Questions:

I really envy people who can think up original questions for these things!

That said, here is an attempt:

If you had a catchphrase, what would it be?

What is the best thing about blogging?

What is the worst thing about blogging?

In your upbringing, who had the most influence on your personal philosophy?

Were you happy at school?

When you were young, did you know what you wanted to be when you grew up?

Did question 6 come true?

How many scientists does it take to change a light bulb?

How many light bulbs does it take to change a scientist?

I just got an email telling me I have a delivery at reception – can you guess what it is?

Do you ever feel like taking off all your clothes and running around your workplace screaming about the blue fairies until the nice men in white coats take you away? No? Just me then?

I’m still laughing at question 11! Your answers are great too. I’m so glad I will soon meet you along with two of our friends. Yay! About question 10: I’m guessing since you are at work you just received some birds droppings to analyse. 😄

No blue fairies where you are? Watch out for them. They get everyone eventually. Elvis told me from his hideout.
Thank you Lisa. You are always so lovely and I am so happy to accept and return the love and hugs! X

Thank you Ali😄. Said teacher had to be very careful setting me test questions because I always had a completely different, but no less valid, take on things. She once asked us all to calculate the interest on a theoretical savings account over 5 years. She was expecting simple interest but I assumed that each year’s interest payment stayed in the account so got interest of its own each subsequent year (compound interest) and calculated accordingly. By her marking scheme my answer was wrong but she had to accept it😄

It does, you know your chemistry. It is Methyl cyanide but fairly harmless as cyanides go and is not even in the top ten of nasty substances I have worked with. This may or may not explain the blue fairies….

I’m totally with you on the hibernating thing – it’s completely unfair!! And what wonderful news that you’re going to visit Dominique!!! I know you’ll have a fantastic time and I would so much love to go too. 😊
